Best Local Arts Website

There's still no cure for the paradigm that says any artistic content on the internet can and should be free. And if people want something for nothing, there's more than a few ways to get it. But thanks to a new, locally grown website called Curensea, fans, artists and curators can cultivate their own solution. Founded by Long Beach locals Natalia Kochan and Sofia Chirico, the site is a platform designed to guide us into the Bermuda Triangle between art and commerce. People who sign up can post their own content and also tip other artists a small amount of money (with coins you can purchase on the site, each of which are worth half a penny) for the stuff other people post that catches their attention.
